parse native vi for comments

[LabVIEW1234]

Is there a way to read in a vi and retrieve all the texts in the comment boxes?

I would like to use other software to read the comments in the vi for documentation purposes?

Of course, you will have to supply the reference to the relevant VI.

That is almost what I was looking for. I want to use perl, java, etc. to read the vi and obtain the comments without using LabVIEW. If I do your method I will have to but all that extra in every vi for a project.

After a few seconds of thinking I could be a bit more clever and some how read all of the vi's in a project and get all of the comments. I would then have to use perl, etc to read the one file will all of the texts.
